Basic reproduction number
Basic reproduction number☜In epidemiology, the basic reproduction number, or basic reproductive number (sometimes called basic reproduction ratio or basic reproductive rate), denoted Ro (pronounced R nought or R zero), of an infection is the expected number of cases directly generated by one case in a population where all individuals are susceptible to infection. [1]☜AECCD8
□
Elimination
Elimination☜Elimination is the reduction of an infectious diseases prevalence in a regional population to zero, or the reduction of the global prevalence to a negligible amount. [1]☜AECCD8
□
Eradication
Eradication☜The eradication of infectious diseases is the reduction of the prevalence of an infectious disease in the global host population to zero. [1]☜AECCD8
□
Sensitivity and specificity
Sensitivity and specificity☜Sensitivity and specificity mathematically describe the accuracy of a test which reports the presence or absence of a condition, in comparison to a ‘Gold Standard’ or definition.[1]☜AECCD8
□
Suppression
Suppression☜Restricting an infectious disease to a low incidence – e.g. restricting the reproduction number at a particular point in time (Rt) in a particular community to a value less than 1.☜AECCD8
